About this organization
Begining in 1889 and onwards, a wave of Flemish speaking Catholics came from Belgium to settle in the Swan Lake area. The parish of St. Alphonse had already been established in 1883, and welcomed these Catholic settlers into their parish. For several years these hardy pioneers walked or travelled the twelve miles or more to St. Alphonse to participate in Sunday worship, to baptize their babies, to marry their children and bury their loved ones.
